Pros

Janney is a great place to work if you want to come in, do your work and go home. If you are the type of person that enjoys a corporate feel/environment that is conservative and slow to adapt, than this company is a good fit

Cons

It seems that this company is more concerned with bringing in more, experienced outside talent than they are with growing and developing their own. The problem this creates is that all of the talent (with the exception of a few) ends up spending a couple years and moving on to another company, rather than continuing to develp at Janney. Management at Janney is very cautious to do or even listen to anything at all that is different or perceived as outside the box. It's as if management is just looking out for themselves and getting their primary job done, whether or not it actually improves the business. As long as the job requested by the bosses boss is complete, all is well (evident when ideas are brought to the table). If you're a person that is looking to grow and develop their career I would stay away from Janney.

Pros

Good work-life balance. Not too stressful. Great pay for what I do.

Cons

Your experience and pay is highly dependent on your branch/team. Back office support is not always the best.
